Mobile Dragon Pass

Hi ,

We are flying out of Heathrow in November and we have got dragon passes through the bank, have anyone ever used them , I don’t like the thought of just rocking up and seeing if there any availability. What are the chances of there being space ?!

Thanks

you can book the lounge at Gatwick for £5 (in addition to using the pass for entry), we considered it but as a family of 5 6 passes only last one flight so not really worth it.

Which terminal are you flying from? I would check that there is a lounge in the terminal that will accept dragon pass, although suspect all terminals have at least one. You may also be able to pre-book a glass of champagne. This will cost a small amount but reserves your space which might be vital if you arrive at a busy time of day.

We are flying out of Heathrow terminal 3 in November as well. I checked trip advisor last night, if you look at no 1 lounge at Heathrow they will let you book in advance with Dragon Pass and the charge is £5 each. Our daughter used the lounge last month and said it was new and really nice.

I’ve used both the paid for lounges at T3 and would have no problem with using again. Although in saying that, I’m more likely to be travelling BA and therefore would have access to 4 different airline lounges. You’d be likely to see me in Cathay F lounge or next door in Qantas. Just be aware of the gate locations in T3. It can be quite a walk to the gates from the lounge.

We have used our Dragonpass a couple of times at Terminal 3 Heathrow and not pre - booked (last time in November ) think it’s £5 per person but it’s a chance you take , will be using hopefully in September 😊😊

We’ve never been able to use ours at Manchester as they’ve always told us the lounge is full.

We have tried a couple of times to use it at Manchester and got the same response as yourself. Same at Newcastle as well, never had this bother when Barclays used Airport Angel. Just have to see what happens in November at Heathrow, but might pre book to be sure.
